The Serpent SER420003 S240 '21 is targeted at racers who prioritise handling and setup versatility. Its combination of lightweight materials and adjustable components makes it a flexible platform for different track layouts.
The 1.5mm carbon fibre chassis provides a stable base while the front assembly uses carbon and aluminium parts mounted on soft silicone grommets to control steering behaviour. Adjustable toe-in and anodised track rods give precise control over front-end feel.
Machined aluminium steering blocks with nylon inserts are paired with carbon brackets to reduce slop and maintain steady steering. The nylon front bumper and anodised body posts protect the shell and components, while the lay-down micro-servo bay (30x30mm, not supplied) allows compact electronic installation.
The rear mounts accommodate an adjustable motor plate for quick gear ratio tweaks. A ball-raced differential with steel balls works together with the 42T spur and 10T motor pinion to produce reliable power transfer, and machined rear wheel adaptors ensure straight running under load.
The 0.5mm GTP clear body keeps weight down and helps aerodynamic balance. On closed dished wheels with foam race tyres, the model presents a compact, aggressive look that supports quick direction changes and stable exits.
Thanks to a simple but effective layout, the Serpent 420003 provides room for setup changes and is suitable for racers who tune for different track surfaces.
